Re: Symptoms of Blackwood allergy?

I've cautioned people before: "Sensitivity can result in a prolonged or lifetime *acquired* allergy to blackwood (a common flute wood), or members of the rosewood family. It's also not limited to lip sensitivity (which can be mitigated by a lip plate), but some individuals will react where thei...

Re: Headless Flute

Re: Who makes a Delrin Piccolo keyless in D?

I can't find any, either. Tony Dixon has a polymer piccolo, but I don't know how "good" it is.

To the extent that he may still be taking orders, Terry McGee offers Delrin (or acetal) as a material.
